A FLORAL WREATH
Mary
and William were married in the springtime in Paris. They were both working
there for the Australian Government immediately after the war. They were very
young and madly in love. For their first wedding anniversary William gave Mary a
linen rose made in an exclusive little shop in Montmartre. They returned home
to Australia shortly afterwards, but each year, on their anniversary William
had one of the linen roses sent from Paris so he could give it to Mary.
Sadly
William lost Mary just last year. William had a floral wreath made up from all
the linen roses that he had sent Mary on their wedding anniversaries, and laid
it on her grave after her funeral.
THE END
